Your handmade dolls are ...A lovely post, as always. Your handmade dolls are gorgeous and are on my list of things to buy when I want to treat myself. A couple of makers that I love are Sam McKechnie at The Magpie and the Wardrobe. I have one of her fairies and would have more if I could afford them. Also Halinka's Fairies, which are adorable and quite reasonable considering all the work that goes into them.<br />I think handmade items carry a bit of the maker's love with them and that lasts forever. With old linens for example I love to imagine who sat and embroidered them. xxxserendipityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06554603552983182516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30438487.post-85901638517135494512011-07-13T06:42:27.627+00:002011-07-13T06:42:27.627+00:00What joy Niki, how precious how fabulous I am so v...What joy Niki, how precious how fabulous I am so very pleased for you....I love the smell of babies..and I love the card you made with the beautiful lullaby.xxx<br />You can imagine how suprised I was to see my work, thank you so much for even thinking of me xxxx and the other makers look really fabulous so I am off now to have a truffle on their blogs....bet you'll be cuddling babes xxxx<br />Love Lynn xxxxSea Angelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17465151079231928631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30438487.post-45703670256152021152011-07-13T06:39:42.622+00:002011-07-13T06:39:42.622+00:00I love your makes especially te card.
